Nervous Tissue and Its Properties Course
Gain mastery over nervous tissue from cell types to circuits. This course covers hippocampus and cortex histology, staining methods, imaging techniques, and data analysis to interpret stress-related changes and prevent artefacts—vital skills for research in biological sciences and laboratory practice.

What will I learn?
The Nervous Tissue and Its Properties Course offers a focused, practical overview of neuronal and glial histology, hippocampal and cortical organisation, and stress-related structural changes. Participants learn optimised paraffin processing, staining, immunohistochemistry for neurons, glia, and myelin, along with microscopy, digital image analysis, stereology, and robust experimental design for reliable, publishable data.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Brain histology preparation: process, embed, and section hippocampus with minimal artefacts.
- Neuron-glia identification: distinguish key cell types and stress-induced morphological changes.
- Advanced staining techniques: apply and validate IHC, Nissl, myelin, and microglial markers.
- Quantitative imaging: capture, analyse, and score nervous tissue using ImageJ/Fiji.
- Experimental rigour: design, blind, and report ethical, reproducible neurohistology.
